Wonderland Candle

Good morning friends!  Blessings to you all today!  As I post this it is dark and chilly...early in the morning. The children are still sleeping...the husband has gone to work...the house is quite except for the clicking of the keyboard! Life is peaceful and calm...but soon the kiddos will be rising, rubbing their eyes...asking "what's for breakfast"...and I'll be ready...calm and at peace...ready to face the hustle and bustle of the morning!  Then...after I get them to school...I'm headed to the coast to spend the day with a girlfriend...I wish another special friend could be joining us...perhaps another day!

I had a fun evening playing out in my workshop while my husband worked on his bicycle and I want to share a new candle creation that I made with the Wonderland stamp set!

I'm making these to donate to my old churches bazaar and to our local hospital's gift shop!  I think I'll put some in the Crafter's Mall as well.  I hope folks will love them and buy them...they can either support missions, the local hospital...or me (lol)!

I stamped the Wonderland tree image twice with Mossy Meadow ink on white tissue paper.  After cutting closely around the image I laid it on the candle, wrapped wax paper around it (holding it firmly) and melted it to the candle with my heat gun!  I added some Venetian lace, Natural Chevron ribbon and Real Red Pom Pom Trim as accents.  I also tied a Snowflake Element to the pom pom trim with Linen thread. Now all I have to do is package it with a matching tag!  What a great gift!



Thanks bunches for stopping by today...it means so much to me that you take the time to see what I've been up to!  ENJOY your day...I'll be back tomorrow!
